#MortalMay #MortalKombat #MortalKombat9 - Hry
-I misspoke when discussing the Strongest Ratio. It's 9:1 not 9:2, as stated earlier.
-Smoke loses in the Outworld tournament offscreen before Johnny loses to Ermac.
-Sonya is 5:1, not 4:1.
Also, Sonya is 5:1, not 4:1. And seriously, this lookover of the wins and losses REALLY shows the major flaw with this NRS story structure when dealing with the villains. Christ... I'm sure Mk vs DC will have more villain wins than the other MKs combined.
7:53 That dare didn't age quite so well
(Edit, was it a dare?)
But in all seriousness, good on you for combing through the games again for these things, plus rectifying any mistakes in the pinned comment
Everyone say thank you to Bi-Han for taking the biggest L for your favorites XD
Hey 👋, also Thank You Bi-Han 😊
Thank you, Bi-Han
Thanks Bi-Han.
Bi-Han out here giving everyone pushes as if its a WWE storyline.
But what if Bi-Han was my favourite? :(
Goro went from being the champion 9 consecutive times to losing a 2v1.
Still boggles my mind
The wonders of plot armor. He had it for so long he didn't even realize he'd lost it to Cyber Sub-Zero
Maybe he was slacking for a while and forgot what losing was
The Shokan are really mishandled in the NRS era. Goro, tournament champion, should only lose to Liu Kang (or potentially Raiden). Kintaro, in a very similar power tier to the Shokan Prince. Should be a hard won fight, but never is. Sheeva is treated like a joke in general.
@@pious83 I did like Sheeva being the new queen of the Shokan in mk11 instead of just another character to beat, but of course NRS just threw that idea away entirely with mk1. Hopefully with the continuation of mk1's story they'll show what Sheeva, the kollector, etc are up to in this new era. Of course I'd rather the kollector be like the mokujin of mk and just be like a background character that acts as the mascot for the shop or whatever but I'd love to see Sheeva doing something too
It shows how much "threatening" the villains are when all their wins do not even go over two digits.
This is the inherent problem with fighting game story modes, you gotta give the villains some wins here and there so they don't seem like bitches
@@bandawin18 as dumb as Tekken is, they at least got that part down. Nobody's ever gonna think Kazuya is a bitch from the story modes
@@bandawin18 Lol MK had an entire trilogy dedicated to the bad guys winning (3D era) it is definitely doable but NRS wont let go of the shitty chapter system.
@@xkmuffinzx3915 yep
@@xkmuffinzx3915 that's what I'm saying, if they wanna make the villains playable they can't keep letting the story mode just be you playing the good guys and beating the villain's asses nonstop. It'd be nice to see what the villain side is like or at least give players the choice to fight for either side but knowing how the modern gaming industry is I doubt we'll ever see true innovation like that ever again
You know you fucked up when a movie star has more wins than an ASSASSIN WITH ICE POWERS!
the movie star at least has powers. A FUCKING COP has more wins
@@aanproduction1516to be fair that cop is pretty nutty for being a powerless human. Mf beat Kintaro with nothing but a nightstick, grenades, guns, and his mf hands
@@aanproduction1516 tbf the cop has a gun.
@@bandawin18and that’s exactly the problem with mk powerscaling. Stryker should NEVER beat anyone in this game
Bi-Han went from killing gods to losing to Jacqui of all people. Fucking embarassing.
Let it be known that Shao Kahn, the fierce Emperor of Outworld, has a worse Win to Loss ratio than a regular-ass police officer from Earth.
He's got the John Cena face buff
It'd be nice if NRS weren't constantly fucking Shao Kahn over by nerfing the shit out of him every chance they get.
Like sure it makes sense that Liu Kang would nerf him so much in mk1 after he reset the timeline, but given that most things are inevitable regardless of divine intervention (like Kenshi going blind and Quan Chi's skin being turned white for example) shouldn't Shao Kahn find some way to regain his lost power and become the menace he's been for so long? Hopefully that's the plan with mk2 cuz Shao Kahn just being this bitch that's constantly taking L's like he's a low class jobber is getting really old now
@@bandawin18with how bad the final chapters and realm events are technically the new Shao and everyone else are above old cast power with the them facing Titan *insert character here* as weekly basis if realm are indeed canon
@@spinozilla2421 I'd only consider the story canon, and it's mentioned that Shao has some debilitating disease he's fought throughout his whole life so it's a wonder how he's this fearsome general to begin with even with all these nerfs
To be fair, he's not a regular ass cop. He's a one man SWAT team gifted with infinite ammo and grenades and, like every other character in Mortal Kombat, he has the power to dish out and take damage that would be instantly fatal to ordinary mortals. Every chosen warrior in MK has some kind of superpowers that set them apart from NPCs, and his just happen to be cop themed.
It's embarrassing how this game started the trend of demonising Bi-Han and made him the most incompetent fighter until Geras came along in MK11.
No wonder people were hyped for Baraka and Reptile being good guys in MK1, they needed that redemption
Ermac, Shao Kahn, and Sektor were the real winners, managing to score a victory despite being villains
The colour red seems to help.
My friend, who is a Street Fighter fan, and asked me, a Mortal Kombat fan, who our equivalent of Dan Hibiki is. I had to say “the villains”.
But especially, Bi-Han
I feel so sorry for Reptile. Worst part is not only was he eliminated from the tournament's first round, but the MK X comics show Johnny canonically punched him in the pee pee... oh who am I kidding, any player that knows the input would've done it.
I’d argue both Bi-Han and Shao Kahn were the biggest losers in mostly how MK9 unintentionally ruined their characters in future games.
Netherrealm has this odd hate boner towards Bi Han presenting him as always evil and Shao Kahn is no longer a master strategist.
He looks good in MK1, though I can't play it
@@twinzzlersspoiler:
He ends up being a power hungry sociopath. He kills his own father for being “too weak” and he takes control of the Lin Kuei. Tries to kill his own brothers and even sides with the other villains of the story.
@@IcyianCanehdian I was talking about Shao Khan lol
@@twinzzlers oh my bad lol. but I do agree what you said about Bi Han though
Baraka, Reptile and Mileena were such ultimate jobbers.
Then MK1 redeemed them
@@ajmolhussain7025with 2 of them being over pushed
Job Squad for you
@@nabilahmed579Which 2?
In terms of both morality and competence.
Bruh, Kuai-Liang went hard in MK9, the guy had zero chill
I saw what you did there.
As much as I would love to dunk on the cyber inititive given the pitiful numbers Cyrax and Sektor are pulling, Kuai Liang is single handedly carrying them by giving them 5 wins as a cyborg
And one of those 5 wins kuai had as a cyborg was a fight against sektor
That's because he breaks free of his mind control, unlike Cyrax, and is a good guy, unlike Sektor.
Sonya displaying her tactical prowess by never picking any fights after her chapter, which is when a MK character is guaranteed to lose. She knows how to choose her battles.
Netherrealm hates Bi-Han, can confirm
@asm4991 they hate Sub-Zero altogether.
@@shin-gokusatsu645nah they like kuai liang not bi han
Can definitely believe that by how edgy and non threatening they make him speak (like a whole joke)
I do not understand NRS. They remade Kano to have probably one of the best personalities in their timeline, they gave him really cool dialogue and interactions, and then they made him a complete jobber. My Australian man can't catch a break.
I mean who tf is kano supposed to beat. Hes a thug with a metal eye hes not beating a hellspawn, a kung fu master who can turn into a dragon, a ninja with ice powers, a mystical princess assassin lady, a sorcerer who can steal ur soul, a god of thunder, a giga buffed man with cybernetic arms, a 4 armed demon etc.
Hey, the marketing _was_ right, technically. Sub-Zero DID lose a bunch. Just not the one who ends up as Sub-Zero by the end
Bi-Han gets beat in lore and fights. Loses a tone, despite being the one to save Sareena, Fight and best Shinnok.
He also gets label a villain despite scorpion being arguably worse considering in Armageddon he wants to end the universe.
Justice for my man Bi-Han!
Scorpion has spent a larger percentage of the series run time as a hero than Bi Han. You bring up Armageddon as a point against Scorpion, but Bi Han also fought on the side of darkness
Scorpion was actually a champion in Deception. So he was on the good side for a bit. His goals in Armageddon are influenced on him being played on an agreed deal. To bring his family back (they came back as zombies essentially).
Lore aside, I do hate when the guy with the coolest drip (Noob Saibot) ends up being the biggest jobber. Kotal Khan and Necalli had this exact same problem.
That is embarrassing man. My favorite character has the most losses
@PandaKnightsFightingDragons you must be smoking crack the only time Scorpion would side with the good guys if Kuai Liang was involved but other than that he really wasn't no hero to begin with more of a dog 😂. Please understand the lore he was way worse in MK-X dooming Liu Kang, Kung Lao, Kitana etc to be doomed as revenants. You also forget Scorpion was never a good guy he was neutral. Majority of his push was done to fan service Ed Boon himself 😂 💀
Weird how fucking Quan Chi gets one less shaft than fucking Shang Tsung since the former has 4 loses and the latter 3, wow nether realm
Bi Han hands down, he also had the worst outcome as well.
Bi-Han be like: “All I do is Lose Lose no matter What”
the fact that the villains had the 2v1 advantage and still lost is extremely embarrassing 😭 like Goro and Kintaro should’ve easily ripped cyber sub-zero apart 😭😭
The only villains to actually win a fight are Shao Kahn before the time reset and Ermac and Sektor in cutscenes. Yet we're meant to take them seriously.
He could have beaten Kung Lao fairly, but didn't because it would have been a waste of time to him
@@Greg501- Except Kung Lao beat Kronika in his canonical ladder ending according to M1K suggesting that he is in fact capable of beating Shao Khan if Kronika's power level is anything to go by.
@@javiervasquez625 Kronika has canonically lost to literally everyone in the Mk11 roster, including the biggest jobbers like Kano, Baraka and Kollector. No, her power is not anything to go by.
@@Wattson19 Yet she's the "Titan of Time" as she calls herself and even if she's treated as jobber her god-like nature as a Titan still makes far stronger than the average mortal on Lore alone.
@@javiervasquez625 Kung Lao beating Kronika doesn't make him stronger than Shao Kahn, as Shao Kahn has also beaten Kronika as well.
No wonder Kuai Liang took the name of Sub-Zero after Bi-Han died. He gave respect to the name Sub-Zero compared his brother who made the name look like a joke. For how much Bi-Han losses, I'm surprised he didn't get laughed out of the tournament or out of every fight for that matter.
I believe Raiden was holding back against Sonya.
That's exactly what happened. He did the same when fighting Kung Jin in MKX.
So Sub-Zero is both the biggest winner and loser in this game. As a Sub-Zero fan, I don’t know how to feel about this.❄️
Crazy that Stryker, a normal cop, manage to win against stronger enemies. Dude IS THE CHOSEN ONE!
Remember when Bi-Han was a godkilling one-man army? Yeah. Good times.
It’s ironic that his biggest W in the series - beating Fujin - happens in a shitty game no one cares about.
@@justsomeguy6336 , that game was bad in terms of gameplay and magnificent lore wise.
To be fair, he only wins through you being the player and plot armor.
Congratulations, you're old. Like me.
I love how they somehow managed to write the villains as the underdogs.
Take a shot every time Snake says "lose to" in this video, you'll be dead 2 minutes in if your lucky
Bi Han - A legendary Assassin = NEVER shown
Noob Saibot - Deadly Wraith with shadow powers _and_ former assassin = NEVER shown
Cyber Initiative - Substantial augmentation and upgrades to elite Lin Kuei assassins = Jobbers
Honestly it would’ve been nice if Kano got a few wins especially against Sonya, since it will gives us a clear idea how cunning and dangerous Kano is when things play out in his favor.🐱
I still question if Kitana and Jade actually let Sonya win or they really aren't a better fighter than Sonya.
In a intro dialogue jade said they let her win, the question is why did they let her win? yeah I don’t think that like Kano but still is a little strange
Both Kitana and Jade in one of their intro dialogues to Sonya in MK11 they say they let Sonya win but we know Kitana is actually stronger than Sonya so she might have been holding back now if Jade is stronger than Sonya still in question.
They weren’t. It wouldn’t make sense writing/story wise. Sonya kinda always been strong
We really need an evolution of fighting game story modes because it gets downright laughable how bad it treats its roster. Something like SF6's World Tour mode could be a lot less humiliating for the MK cast. They deserve better.
They could always just not make story mode so one-sided. Like they had to be aware on some level fans would be more interested in getting, say, a Mileena chapter than multiple Jacqui chapters...
@@lordtrigon1733 True. For some reason they hate giving the "villains" any time to show their worth.
Little did Raiden know, that "He Must Win" was actually about Kuai Liang, putting respect on the Sub-Zero name. Wonder how the NRS Trilogy's overall numbers will look like. I'm guessing Raiden will take the top spot overall, but Sub-Zero(Kuai) and Scorpion will probably be top 5.
Bi-Han: 0-6 Ratio
Oof, how the mighty have fallen.
Bi-Han is a big loser in MK9
But I'm sure NRS redeemed him in MK11!
Ah no, my friend, Sonya only "won" because Raiden wasn't taking the fight seriously.
That doesn't matter in this countdown.
Sub Zero was consistently humiliated and brutalised in the marketing for this game but still ended with the most victories.
The irony is delicious, isn’t it?
I’m like really impressed by bi Han. How does one fumble so hard
I usually love Batman, but him winning against Liu Kang us one if the worst plot armor moments, he also tanked lightning from the god of thunder, i hate that
Great video, as always! Also, if Ermac got 1 win in this game, I'm scared for him in MKX and M1K.
He'll probably get a chapter in the story expansion of M1K so that's a few wins for him there. As for MKX... yeah, he's washed
The real biggest losers don’t press Like!
Being a minor bad guy in MK means you are doomed to Jobber status.
It is shocking that all the characters that are allegedly improved tend to suck in the newer games. Noob constantly talks about how he's been perfected but he was stronger as Sub-Zero, Cyrax was better as a human and Cyberization changed nothing for Sektor. Only Kuai-Liang actually has an improvement from Cyberization but he was already awesome as is. Really shows some shit writing when the upgraded versions are worse or negligible than the originals. That would be like if they do an Injustice 3 with Braniac Superman and he loses every fight.
It's weird you never Critique Mortal Kombat vs. DC Universe story.
Could be a fun video to see.
Kuai Liang really seems to be NRS' favorite while Bi-Han seems to be their least favorite by how much he gets decked throughout all the NRS MK games.
Well, nothing, the superluser room had a replenishment a few years ago, and now there are two of them. The great NRS saw how depressed Bi Han was sitting alone in the SUPERLUSER room, and decided to throw the Emperor of Outworld there as support. Previously, his name alone terrified the worlds, even the Elder gods were afraid of him, he was able to defeat Onaga, Blaze, Raiden, stand up against all the united Gods, with one presence he could absorb billions of creatures where only God could resist, he could easily unite a bunch of realities, while actually devouring all living things from them, from- why would they be lifeless, he was presented as an analogue of Darkseid himself, Ed Boone himself called him the strongest, and now... First, they took away part of his name, making him a title (yes, this is exactly part of the name, they only intended to make it a title, but in the end it was also part of the emperor's name), then turned him into a stupid dragon that everyone kicked, and now in general into a stupid and weak horned deer that was knocked out with one kick sent by LI MEI. I understand that he is not as strong as before, but not to the same extent that LI MEI knocked him out with a poke. It's as if Darkseid was knocked out by a cheetah with a single blow to the back of the head. Although Darkseid's fate is not much better. The one in the New 52 has also degraded quite well. From a being who, in addition to enormous physical strength, also possessed very high intelligence, and was one of the most cunning characters, whose appearance caused unreal horror, which made it clear that something serious was coming that would globally affect everything and everyone, he turned into a stupid jock who did not accept any trick in a battle, a conflict with which, in fact, does not really mean anything, something global that will turn the world upside down. But, in turn, at least he could beat someone. Shao Kahn can't do anything to anyone at all. He's just an amoeba. That his idea, that his role in the plot is just terrible. From a creature that even the Elder Gods began to strain in front of, they turned into a weak idiot, whom Li Mei knocks out with his foot.What is the development of events, in your opinion? Shao Kahn apparently fucked the screenwriter so hard that he already had an injury after such an act, after which he decided to lower it to the level of a sneaker, so that only he would no longer be strong, which would later make him the boss. For this reason, as I understand it, Onaga does not appear either. Yes, some of this does not appear there, it is not even mentioned in the plot. And his army was generally given to the left ruler. Oh yes, Onaga has already been defeated by Reiko, as can be understood from the slitzy dialogues, who is no less a sucker here than his patron. Speaking of appearance, it is most insulting for her. I liked Tobias's idea that Reiko is Shao Kahn, in particular because of his appearance, where behind the brutal mask of a malicious emperor who destroyed many realities, cut out trillions of creatures, there is not some brutal guy like Kratos, whose face emits fighting energy and anger, but on the contrary a cute guy who has no special brutality and whose face does not say that this creature has destroyed countless creatures. And yes, if we talk about the fact that John showed Shao Kahn as a dragon in the comics, then this was done for advertising purposes. In fact, Shao Kahn looked exactly like Reiko, that is, just like a cute guy
With these numbers, Yamcha could decimate the Mortal Kombat tournament
Ermac being 1:4... Im very sad right now
But hey atleast liu kang is actually lore accurate this time with only one L to a literal God
Bi-Han: "Yes Kuai Liang. It is I. NRS restored me."
Kuai Liang: "Restored? We, we had less flaws in the Midway era..."
Bi-Han: "I have no flaws, NRS has perfected me"
Kuai: "To lose constantly & be written like an edge lord with no depth?"
Bi-Han: "Yes..."
Yesssss! After 8 months you finally made another one!
I still feel Sindel massacring the heroes should be included cause that's still a beat down and half of them were killed.
He said beat downs don’t count, which most likely means one sided and quick fights
It's crazy how Bi-Han is 0-6 while Kuai Liang is 9-1
Goro going from the 9 time champion to a total chump after the Midway era is a charactet assassination if I've ever seen one.
This is made funnier if you consider Mythologies happening. Bi-Han went from beating everyone to becoming the biggest jobber in the next game.
I liked how every 0-4 or 0-3 guy, they’re clips had them only on the floor 😂😂😂
1:34 damn Kang thats impressive
Are we gonna ignore that my man Stryker took down reptile, Melina, kintaro, and Ermac essentially back to back.
Truly is super cop
Man, they turned the original and classic into such a Noob.
Hopefully we get an MKX version of NRS BIGGEST Losers
So you basically mean Kuai Liang is Mk's Hulk Hogan ?
Great job on the video, love your content. Now let's nitpick. You forgot that smoke lost a fight of screen. Raiden mentioned it after JC got defeated in the arena.
this just shows that not making the villains playable in the story makes them ultra jobbers
This…this video makes me sad. Remember when Bi-Han was canonically one of the strongest characters as both Sub-Zero and Noob Saibot? 🥲
Yep. Like Tien in db, Bi-Han got nerf to the ground to make those less than them look good and love playing favorites rather than being consistent. MK9 should have continue Taven's story from MKA not retell MK to MK3s story which led to characters getting butchered.
Kano is the king of losing
It’d be cool if at the end you showed us the ranking for each category (wins, ratio, etc.). Or maybe a linked document in the description would work better
Isn't it kind of pointless to quantify wins/losses considering how linear and formulaic the chapter system is? NRS only ever lets us play as the good guys in the story and we all know they almost never lose during their chapter (gameplay or otherwise)
No surprise *Ed can't write for shit Boon* took a jab at John Tobias making the well established older Sub-Zero job to the stars & then make Kuai Liang take L's in MK-X after & even MK11.
Great video.
Oh I'm so looking forwards to the Injustice one. Can't wait to see Wonder Woman's (both versions) win/loss ratio compared to Superman and Batman.
I’m glad you continued this series from DCU.
I would love to see more of these types of videos
Damn it's been a long time since the last one came out
I wonder if NRS even thinks about these things. Like how many fights someone has or how many losses.
It might as well be an NRS tradition that the bad guys always go down like punks.
Sonya beats Raiden.
Let that sink in.
As someone would say
Noob goes down easily due to his name
Pour a drink for mah boy Kintaro who never won anything ever.
i mean the good guys have plot armor which villains don't really have lol.
1:35 once again, snake cannot stray away from being a pathetic Liu Kang fanboy.
cope
It’s funny you can say Sub Zero was the best and worst fighter in the story, and you’d still be correct.
You should actually do more biggest losers videos more often. This is actually fun!
My memory of all the matches in this game is fuzzy, so I was expecting the fighter with the most losses to be Kano, who, as you previously pointed out, never wins a fight in the entire timeline, Baraka, or Shang Tsung. Shang Tsung getting his ass kicked by Kung Lao is especially embarrassing when in the original timeline, he killed Kung Lao. Now he can't beat him even with Quan Chi as back up.
I didn't consider how Bi-Han took extra loses as Noob Saibot. And Raiden said Noob was a dangerous adversary.
Bi-han is a true journeyman.
well... at least now Bi-Han defeated Ermac, Nitara, Quad Chi, Shang Tsung and... story dlc leak u know
Really? What leak?
@@vaggos2003 spoiler: Bi-Han [as Noob Saibot] will be the one who defeat Titan Havik. Symbolic
@@naku-2691 Wait? Really?
I wonder how he will handle the Armageddon thing in M1K
jeez it's been 8 months since the first video haiosdf. I had a pretty bad 2023 maybe that's why it flew by damn hioadsf
Ha! My real life ratio is balanced like Johnny Cage. When I was in school I got into fights alot and during middle and high school I was involved in a total of 8 fights. I won 4 and lost 4, but two I lost were more than one person with my one fight being about 5 kids. No wonder I lost. Anyway I think it's kinda funny my real life record is 4:4 like Johnny!😅
Raiden didn't actually lose to Sonya but I guess how it looked she did.
Is Johnny Cage that much of a handicap, that Smoke, being paired with him, lost to the same opponent he defeated like 10 minutes ago?
Cool to know this.
I'm glad Kaui Liang is the winner since he's my favorite character but it feels kinda empty when the villains are a bunch of wimps and that the fact that he gets taken out in one punch.
i think the dumbest loss is sonya beating raiden like what 😂
To be fair…at least it’s implied he was holding back. Sub-Zero on the other hand…
@@RedCommunistDragonYeah, Bi-Han has absolutely no excuse whatsoever, especially given it's an assassination attempt.
Only made worse by being the second biggest punching bag throughout all the MK story modes combined, minus Kano.
I don’t agree with the beatdown/ one shot rule. Sure you can argue the twindel killstreak doesn’t count because she’s fused with Shang Tsung at the time, but Ermac surely deserves a win for taking Jax’s arms.
didnt smoke get handed on offscreen L in kung lao's chapter? as raiden says ''smoke and johnny cage have been defeated''
once the mk onslaught story is completely over would you cover it in this kind of videos??? or wasted plotentials???
I'm going to cover Onslaught's Khronicles after the next one drops next week. I'm not sure about this type of video.
This is one of the best series in the channel
